Davis Webb did all he could this summer to make the team. Kenny Golladay did not do much of anything, really, to stick around. <\/p>\n

Webb will find out soon enough if he is on the roster as the No. 3 quarterback or once again shipped out to the practice squad. Golladay, the enigmatic wide receiver, is almost impossible to jettison. <\/p>\n

These are two of the main takeaways from the Giants out of Sunday’s preseason finals, a 31-27 loss to the Jets at MetLife Stadium that featured the best of Webb and very little from Golladay. <\/p>\n

Head coach Brian Daboll opted to keep Daniel Jones on the sideline, with most of the starting players, using backup Tyrod Taylor at the beginning of the game. Webb expected to play the final three quarters but was summoned earlier than that. Taylor, after completing a 25-yard pass to rookie tight end Daniel Bellinger, was leveled by Jets rookie defensive lineman Micheal Clemons, who landed on him with the full weight of his 263 pounds. <\/p>\n

Taylor left the game with a back injury and did not return. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe should be OK,\u201d Daboll said. \u201cI don’t think it’s anything. He just landed hard. I talked to him at halftime and he said he’s OK.” <\/p>\n

Webb handled the workload with the second- and third-team players, completing 30 of 38 passes for 202 yards, including a pinpoint 18-yard touchdown pass to rookie tight end Austin Allen on the first play of the fourth quarter to give the Giants a 24-17 leads. <\/p>\n
